Enhanced Face Detection Technology
A new enhancement to Canon's Face Detection Technology, Face Detection White Balance is included in PowerShot models for the first time. This feature sets the camera's white balance for the face detection frame, rather than the centre point. The result is sharp, well-exposed portraits with natural skin tones under artificial, natural or mixed lighting conditions. Also added to these three PowerShot models is Face Select & Track. This clever feature follows a user-selected face around the frame, ensuring that optimal results are achieved at the moment the user chooses to shoot.
New AF Point Zoom allows the photographer to magnify the AF frame when the shutter button is pressed half way, so that facial expressions can be checked before shooting. AF performance in low light has been significantly improved to achieve focus in scenes at around one stop darker.
In addition to Red-Eye Correction in playback, each of the models now features automatic Red-Eye Correction in shooting. When set to automatic, the feature detects and removes red-eye as the user shoots. Newly enhanced red-eye correction algorithms provide further improvements in correction accuracy.
